Описание: "The Modernist house" was a test of modern architects' ability to meet human needs while fuelling the intellect. "The Modernist Home" reveals the striking results of the challenge to fit utopian modernist principles to day-to-day living."The Modernist house" dissolved the closed spaces of the traditional home, modernizing the bathrooms and kitchens, opening the interior to natural light and providing balconies and terraces for sun-worship and sleeping in the open air. Tim Benton uncovers its elements: from the technology that provided central heating and electric lighting; to new construction materials, such as concrete and steel; to close-ups on features like winter gardens and folding furniture. He opens the door on Modernist houses around the world, from Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye, to Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona Pavilion, all fully illustrated with colour photographs and plans.

Описание: Paradise for Growth-Kindergarten Design welcomes you into an environment of colour, providing an environment for expression and imagination the fundamental elements of a happy childhood; this is a collection of beautifully designed interiors that feel warm, bold and uncluttered leaving space to grow and develop. The designs seem intuitive, themselves playful and unrestrained; spaces where stories are created, where there is talk and laughter; understated simplicity of architectural shape and form and yet undeniably an educational environment to be enjoyed and used practically. Outdoor spaces filter inside, earth and sky are cleverly joined to provide 'classrooms' that are uniquely different.

Описание: This beautifully written new book explores the work of 175 of the most important American modernist artist jewelers through a comprehensive text and over 540 color and 35 black and white photos. Beginning with the streamlining of Art Moderne, modernist jewelers mirrored the consciousness of their age. They were free thinkersartists who broke away from the mainstream of jewelry design and looked to the fine arts for inspiration; they were Surrealists, Cubists, and Abstract Expressionists functioning as sculptors in small scale, painters in enamels, and architects in miniature. The modernist metalsmiths of the 1930s through 1960s laid the groundwork for the enormous expansion of metalsmithing in the 1970s and 80s. These creative jewelers produced personal designs as they absorbed the changes happening in the world around them. The artists stories and jewelry are arranged chronologically and linked to four pivotal exhibitions held at the Museum of Modern Art, New York City, in 1946; the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, in 1948 and 1955; and an exhibition on paper in 1959. Together, the artists at these important events comprise the modernist movement of wearable art directly and through their influence on the subsequent generations. This important book will stand as the primary reference to art jewelry of the mid-20th century and be consulted by all who want to understand the innovations it embraces.

Описание: Los Angeles, a sprawling, multi-ethnic city on the edge of a continent, conjures up imagery as seductive and contradictory as the place itself. Equal parts glamour and cataclysm, sunshine and noir, few cities have provoked visual representation as insistently as LA. "This Side of Paradise" explores the synergistic relationship between the city and photography from the mid-nineteenth century to the present through the key themes of landscape and the body.

Eschewing the traditional, chronological approach to the subject, this stunning book encompasses the full spectrum of documentary, commercial and artistic imagery, shedding new light on both LA and the photographic practices within it. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this stimulating and wide-ranging survey includes images by Carleton Watkins, Edward Weston, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, Garry Winogrand, Ed Ruscha, Dennis Hopper, Herb Ritts, John Baldessari, Catherine Opie and many others.
